Hello there, what's cooking?

• Are you single?
• Living alone?
• Or maybe the sole plant-based person in a household where others cook their own animal-based meals?

The Spring season of content and programs in the Vegan Family Kitchen is for YOU!

In my Vegan Family Kitchen, families of one are also welcome.

A more efficient and less wasteful way to cook for one (that will actually get you to eat at home)

When living on one's own, it's easy to lose motivation for cooking. Let's face it:

🔪 Creating a healthy vegan meal from scratch takes at least 20 minutes, probably more like 30 or 40 minutes.

🍽️ Eating alone takes... what, 5 minutes?

Depressing.

If that's you, I don't blame you for buying ready-made meals, ordering in, or eating a PB&J sandwich.

And also I'd love for you to enjoy a nutritious and delicious meal cooked at home with love by yourself, for your self instead.

There's a few ways you could achieve that:

• Search Google for "healthy vegan recipes for one" and schedule one for every day of the week 👎Don't do that! You probably won't cook more than half of those meals, wasting food, time, and money.

OR

• Learn and practice cascade cooking: improvising simple meals that you can cook without thinking, with flavor and seasonal variations, based on a few building blocks you'll have prepped on the weekend 👍👍👍

Cascade cooking means more intention and planning, with less time and effort in the kitchen. Pretty sure it's cheaper, too - restaurant food is SO expensive!!

This is what I teach in my course Plan, Prep, and Relax: Plant-Based Batch Cooking for Busy Beginners, and the Spring 2025 cohort is going to be focused on the needs of those who cook for one.

PPR S25 is a lighter version of the course - those cooking for one don't need the longer, more complex batch cooking sessions! And it's focused on building a small community of healthy vegan cooks who can support each other through the course and, perhaps, beyond.

If that sounds interesting, check out the full details here:

Due to the smaller scope of this course, the price is reduced compared to the normal PPR tuition. Early-bird discount is on until April 6th using coupon code EARLY and Canadian $ pricing is available. More info​

Free workshop next week: Strategies, shortcuts, and community when cooking for one

Speaking of cooking for one, we're going to kick off the Season of Singles with an interactive workshop on cooking for one. This is my monthly free workshop and an intro to the Plan, Prep, and Relax "cooking for one" cohort content. I will share some strategies and shortcuts you can adopt, and you will contribute some stories about how you are making things work for yourself.

Would you like to join us?

Keep on cooking,

Brigitte
